I think I mentioned elsewhere already that psychologists apparently have a new procedure to comply with that consists in assisting people to do something about their guts, before prescribing antidepressants or the like. That too seems intuitive - too much chemical medication can have a disastrous effect on your intestinal flora (and tissue) but I think most of us know that there is a very clear link between mental state and "gut feeling". Make my gut act up and my brain will try to think I'm having an anxiety attack, and I'm pretty certain that a continuous state of mental ill-being will have effect on the guts too.
I wouldn't be surprised if there were also a link between the biome and the overall health of your immune system.
suggested I should make and eat my own pickles. But, he wasn't thinking about salt content.
I don't add sugar either btw, I use (part) balsamic vinegar. You could add (ground) turmeric (curcuma), which has plenty of health benefits (supposedly)

Author is William Davis MD.
I'm not pushing it. I just thought that it was interesting that it might be relevant to treating hand pain from osteo arthritis.
I can't tell if Dr. Davis is firmly grounded in research or out in front of it.

Plus, they taste delicious. Bubbies is one such company, and another is RealPickles. I heartily recommend both.

Kefir makes any food edible and comforting.
ANY porridge+kefir=mmmmmmyeh
Plain rye bread with butter+kefir=thank you.
Kefir is the ultimate condiment in a drinkable form. Goes with any food. Makes it tight. And is good for your guts.
edit: "condiment" by dictionary: to enhance the flavor. NO. it is the opposite. it supresses the taste of the food, making it all edible.
